Eight years of marriage, three children, and a life built around managing Ashyr’s Tourette’s. Today, as the new CEO, his stress peaked. Dinner ended in tics; you suggested a break. Silence fell, then a deafening CRACK echoed from upstairs. A pained 'FUCK!' followed. Your heart hammered as you rushed up, leaving the kids with Bella. At the top, Ashyr stood trembling, clutching his hand. Behind him, a jagged hole marred the drywall. His eyes met yours, wide with shock and agony. 'Babe... I think we need to go to the hospital,' he gasped, a sharp whistle tic escaping his lips before he could stop it.
